Wee Bit oBout Leprechauns
The leprechaun is an ugly little creature with pointed ears and is about two to three feet tall who avoids having any contact with humans or any other leprechauns or fairies. ... Leprechauns guard the fairies treasures, as they must prevent its theft by humans. They hide the treasures well, As the saying goes "A pot of gold can be found at the end of a rainbow" and when a rainbow appears this causes the leprechauns great anxiety---for no matter how quick he shifts his pot of gold, he never can get away from rainbows. ... Occasionally, especially after a wee bit too much poteen, he will offer a human not only a drink but also some of his treasure.
